Happy 25th Anniversary

25 years ago today, it was 5 degrees in Pittsburgh, PA...and I was sweating. Not because I was unsure of the giant step I was about to take. I was more worried about tripping down the aisle or my voice cracking in front of friends and family as I promised to love & cherish (yes, I said "obey", but I always told him he knew what I really meant!) my best friend through good times & bad. Fortunately, the good times have been many & the bad times...well, we'll just call them learning experiences!

I could go on & on about how is seems like yesterday yet it seems like forever or it's been the happiest 25 years of my life...well, all of that is true. What I really want to say is "Love You More"...more today than yesterday, I couldn't love you more, and still Love You More. That's all the sappy country tunes I know! (Pretty good for a couple that watched their share of Heavy Metal 80's bands!) I designed this with you in mind Bill and I am truly grateful for the life that we have built together.

Enjoy this complimentary chart. If I did everything correctly, you can "click" on the link below. If I did not, then I will be getting lots of comments about how you can't get the post & I will have to e-mail you the file ;) Love-You-More Chart

There is plenty of time to get this stitched up before Sweetheart's Day - so get busy!

Just to leave you with a laugh (plus I didn't have any other handy picture of the two of us - how sad is that!)...here is Bill & me at Topsail Beach...probably about 26 or 27 years ago! We both had mullets!

You are welcome! I had thought about putting our initials on it...you could even work it into a wedding sampler...a keepsake for baby. Flat finish as an ornament...I'm just loving these quirky little pillow finishes lately.

Hello, Cathy, my Dear! (Happy Anniversary!) I've come to you from The "Grow Your Blog" party...it was over before I knew about it, but it was so nice of Vicki to leave the list up! Anyway, I always welcome new blogs to enjoy, and yours is delightful! I am now following you ~ please come and visit me if you get a chance!So nice to "meet" you!Hugs,Anne

Hi, Cathy!! So glad you enjoyed my little finish of your wonderful design :) I really enjoyed how quickly it stitched up and it was fun making it into a long-lasting Valentine for my husband! Nice to know that it was created by a native Pittsburgher, too :)

Hope you have a lovely day and thank you again for your great freebie!! Best wishes from "the 'Burgh!"
